[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#838567: network-manager-gnome: segfault 15 when importing openvpn vpn profile config

[Dan Snider]

Package: network-manager-gnome
Version: 0.9.10.0-2
Severity: normal

I installed openvpn and network-manager-openvpn-gnome on Jessie. I
downloaded an autologin profile in .ovpn format from my remote openvpn
access server. When running 'openvpn --config <the.ovpn>' the tunnel is
built and works. When importing 'the.ovpn' via nm-connection-editor
through network-manager a segfault error 15 is reliably encountered.

segfault at 2101a90 ip 0000000002101a90 sp 00007ffd27057928 error 15

I ran network-manager via gdb but I admittedly have never used gdb or
submitted a bug report before so I've probably missed some steps:
